Tech support scams were the most widely reported kind of elder fraud in 2023….Personal data breaches, confidence and romance scams, non-payment or non-delivery scams, and investment scams rounded out the top five most common types of elder fraud reported to IC3 last year.” (“Elder Fraud in Focus,” April 30 2024)
